Chuckle brothers (and sisters)

May I take the opportunity to point you in the direction of The Laughter Track, a new collaborative blog dedicated to celebrating and promoting stand-up comedy to which I'll be contributing live reviews, DVD reviews, features and maybe the odd interview too.

It's been set up by Alan - any regular readers of Random Burblings will already be familiar with his extensive coverage of the Edinburgh Festival - and joining us will be Caroline, Clair and me old mucka Skif. It's very much a case of the more the merrier, though, so if you'd like to get involved leave us a comment on the site or drop me an email to the address in the sidebar here.
